Why did Mel & Co. deciede not to report their grosses for Young Frakenstein? Afraid that it won't meet people's excpectations.
As a private venture there is no obligation to release the weekly grosses. Granted the specific reason remains to be seen.

Yeah, I realize that, just found it odd that he didn't realize the figures.
Variety reported the grosses as being around $1.7 million, which was only $100,000 off the best week "Wicked" has ever had, and they should pass that mark this coming thanksgiving weekend.
I think the reason was so people would not look at it like the Producers, as in it did not make the same money that week as the Producers did in it's 3rd week and so on.
